The food web data compiled for this study, consisting of 339 quadrats, 39 transects, five sites, four locales, and one archipelago-wide network. The table provides a unique numeric identifier per food web (WebID), the spatial scale (WebScale; distinguishing quadrats [Q], transects [T], sites [S], locales [L], and the archipelago-scale [A]), a sample number (WebUnit; to identify individual transects [quadrat- and transect-scale samples], sites, or locales), and the Integrated Taxonomic Information System's (ITIS) Taxonomic Serial Number (TSN) and name of each predator and prey (PredTSN, PreyTSN, PredName, and PreyName, respectively). Taxa lacking entries in ITIS have a unique custom TSN prepended with “san”.
